Compared to traditional deposition techniques, in situ growth of nanoparticles on material surfaces is one of the more time- and cost-effective ways to design new catalysts. The B-site transition-metal cations in perovskite lattice could be partially exsolved as nanoparticles under reducing conditions, greatly enhancing catalytic activity. Here, we demonstrate that growing nanoparticles on the surface of a layered perovskite La0.8Sr1.2Fe0.9Co0.1O4±δ (LSFC), which could be applied as a redox stable and active electrode for intermediate-temperature symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SSOFCs). Substitution of a proper amount of Co into the layered perovskite can thus optimize cathode and anode performance simultaneously. For example, the polarization resistances (Rp) of LSFC electrode at 800 °C are 0.29 and 1.14 Ω cm2 in air and in 5% H2/N2 respectively, which are much smaller compared with the Rp of Co-free La0.8Sr1.2FeO4±δ. The lower polarization resistance for LSFC in air can be mainly attributed to th...
